[Alabare]

I read a prayer the other day that instructed, "Alabare! Alabare! Alabare a mi Señor." Being an accomplished Spanish student, I knew right away that Alabare means a charge to praise. (Accomplished student, what? Nope, had to look the word up on my beloved spanishdict.com). Nevertheless, alabare is a lovely directive.  

These days are full to bursting, green and bright. It is a good life the Señor has gifted us with. SO many reasons to alabar as of late -

recreational reading
laughter without a reason, always the best kind
matthew, chapter 6
snapshots of understanding and reflection
chocolate croissants and coffee with movies
late afternoon napping
long mornings and long talks at atomic cafe
farm stand visits
evening runs through the woods
books that remind me to celebrate
grass, beach laying
New England this time of year - stunning. 

oh yes. summer summer summer is upon us.
